Chapter 156 Barbecue
"This is called social etiquette." Xu Hai said as he walked back into the house, looked at the things they brought, and finally picked out some that the elderly could eat and the children would like to eat.
It was a big bag. When he came out, Shen An said, "Can't we eat before going?"
"Hi, it's just a few steps away. I'll be back soon. Besides, Grandma Li is taking care of two grandchildren by herself. Let me take a look." After saying that, he put down the skateboard standing beside him, stepped on it and skated away.
Seeing them all looking at each other with doubtful expressions, Gu Fei said to them, "There are only three of them in Grandma Li's family, and they usually take good care of Xiao Xu."
"What do you mean, just an old man and two elementary school kids?" Chu Yunyang was shocked. How could this be possible? If something went wrong, it would be too late to regret it.
"Adults always have to go to the city to work and earn money to support their families. Working means separation. Who would want to be separated from their children?" Gu Fei said. "The village is almost entirely populated by left-behind children and elderly people."
Shen An frowned. Isn't this near the sea? Why do we need to go out of town to work? Can't we make money by catching and selling fish?
Gu Fei has been in the village for more than a year, so she is familiar with what is going on there.
“How can children live a happy life if they don’t go out to work?”
Song Tingxuan's face became serious when he heard Gu Fei's words. He looked at the trees not far away. Not far away was the seaside. The air here was fresh, the greenery was good, and it was close to the seaside. It only took more than an hour to drive here.
This should have been discovered by the developer. Why hasn't anyone taken over this place to build villas for the elderly to live in?
As expected, businessmen only see profit. At this time, Song Tingxuan was already considering how to develop this place so as to make the most money.
During the discussion, Xu Hai came back on his skateboard. He stopped to the side, put away the skateboard, washed his hands and continued eating.
"Would you like to have barbecue tonight?" he asked everyone.
It was already past four o'clock, and after this meal, I would probably still be hungry at around eight or nine in the evening. So Xu Haicai suggested that they have a barbecue. He hadn't eaten it for a long time, and there was no barbecue stall in the village, so he had to get it himself.
"Sure!" Shen An was the first to agree. Her colleague had said in the office before that he wanted to go for a barbecue with his family. After hearing about it so many times, she also wanted to eat it, but unfortunately she never had the time.
Now that Xu Hai proposed it, she was the first to agree. Moreover, Yan Luhe, that guy, had been very strict with her since he became her boyfriend. He told her to eat less snacks and takeout food for her health.
Shen An agreed and Chu Yunyang had no objection either. Needless to say, he was eager to do it right away.
"I have no objection either." Song Tingxuan said.
Finally everyone agreed, and Xu Hai decided to show off his unique skills to let these young masters know how powerful his skills are.
After dinner, they cleaned up the dishes and Xu Hai, Gu Fei and Xiao Mian Yang went to the supermarket in town to buy what they needed for tonight.
Seeing this silver tram traveling through places that other cars could not pass, they realized the role of trams in the village.
Before leaving, Xu Hai talked to them and washed the dishes. There was a TV in the living room on the second floor, so they could watch TV if they were bored. If they really didn't want to watch it, they could teach Hengheng how to skateboard.
The owner of the green brick and tile house drove away, leaving only a group of guests. When washing dishes, Song Tingxuan broke two dishes. Because they were too slippery, he wiped them too hard and accidentally lost his balance and dropped the dishes.
Looking at the debris on the ground, Shen An and Chu Yunyang looked at him. The pampered Master Song picked up the second dish and continued to wash it without any embarrassment, and then smashed another dish.
There were eight or nine dishes, and he broke two of them.
"Why don't you go and take care of Hengheng? Let us do it." Chu Yunyang said, pointing at Hengheng who was playing skateboard outside.
Song Tingxuan glanced at Hengheng outside from the window, coughed awkwardly and said, "Okay."
They cleared the dishes and washed some fruit and placed it on the table for them to eat.
It was still early, so they sat at the door, eating fruit and watching the villagers working in the fields not far away. Children were running along the ridges of the fields, and the breeze was blowing gently, filling the air with a fragrance.
The life here gives people a special feeling of tranquility, which makes people indulge in it.
Everyone was very happy when we were barbecuing at night, and we were even more excited when we saw countless stars appearing in the completely dark sky.
They hadn't seen the stars in the city for many years, and they didn't expect to see so many stars here.
Xu Hai was wearing a white vest and black trousers, holding a piece of barbecue in his hand. He stood in front of the grill and grilled it, while those who didn't know how to cook stood by and helped him.
"Brother Xu Hai, why do you know everything?" Hengheng raised his head and looked at him with his big black eyes and asked.
Xu Hai just laughed and said, "My dad told me that if you know everything, you can find a wife in the future."
As soon as he said this, Heng Heng looked at him in confusion, "Why do you have to know everything to find a wife? Dad didn't know anything either, but he still married Mom."
"..."Xu Hai glanced at Hengheng who was smiling reluctantly. Your father is the richest man in the country. With this status, if he can't find a wife, he will definitely not be able to find a wife.
If he doesn't learn more skills, it will be strange for him to find a wife in the future.
He stroked Hengheng's hair and said, "You'll know when you grow up. If you really want to know, go ask your dad."
This question was thrown to Song Tingxuan, who was peeling apples for Gu Fei at that time.
He peeled the big red apple bit by bit in his hands, revealing the light white and slightly yellow flesh inside.
After being called, he looked up at Xu Hai. He glanced at the two people standing there and then lowered his head to continue peeling apples.
"I can make money." Although he doesn't know how to cook or wash dishes, his ability to make money is first-rate.
"I can't make any money, so I can only be more diligent and work harder." Xu Hai continued with what he said.
Hengheng didn't understand what he said, so he handed the ice cream in his hand to him and said, "Want to eat ice cream? I don't know, but come on, brother Xu Hai."
Xu Hai: ...
I don't know what you are asking here.
She stuffed a few roasted lamb skewers into his hands and said, "Eat it. I'll have the ice cream later." Then she took the ice cream that he had not eaten yet.
"It's done and ready to eat." He took a few skewers, coated them with chili powder, and ate them in a few bites. He also ate Hengheng's ice cream.
When Hengheng finished eating the skewers, he found that most of his ice cream had been eaten by Xu Hai, and he became anxious.
"Brother Xu Hai, how can you eat my ice cream!" He stood in front of Xu Hai, stamping his feet and said anxiously.
